My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This little fluff ball is Shelby and she is a female, approx 8-9 month old, 19lb Doodle/Maltipoo mix that is the most darling thing ever! Shelby came to us when she was purchased by a young man who got her for his girlfriend at 8 weeks old. Shelby didn't last more than a few months before they both decided that they didn't want her, stating that a puppy is "too much!" The owners were ready to give her away to the first person they could not caring one bit where she went. Thankfully, a friend of theirs reached out to us and asked if we could take her into our foundation and we said yes! Shelby is a VERY mischievous and energetic puppy. In fact, her favorite thing to do is to get and be messy and dirty, so if you have a very pristine home or get a little upset with a dog digging her face through the dirt...then Shelby is not the dog for you. She definitely needs another "young" and "playful" pup in the home. She cannot be an "only" dog. If you do not have another dog we do have a couple of adoptable pups that she is best friends with and one could be adopted with her. We have Toby a 1 year old, male Chiweenie and Tali a 3-4 year old, female, Maltese/Terrier mix. She also needs a home with a safe and secure backyard to run around in. She is not an apt type dog. We are looking for owners that are home most of the day and not gone long hours, along with being puppy savvy. This crazy puppy needs a very relaxed home as she can be naughty with getting into things she is not supposed to and chewing up things shes not supposed to. She is basically ALL puppy x100! We are looking for owners that are very active and home must of the day. Shelby is a breed that needs full grooming every 6 weeks, so potential adopters must be ok with that. Please note that she cannot be crated. Sweet little Shelby is one amazing little puppy that deserves the best home out there!

More about this rescue

THE FORGOTTEN DOG FOUNDATION rescues, rehabilitates and re-homes shelter, stray, abused and abandoned dogs. Our goal is to place our rescues in foster homes rather than in boarding facilities. After temperament assessment, needed veterinary services, and lots of attention and socialization we carefully screen and place these dogs in loving forever homes.
